Welcome
to the third edition of the international theatre festival HALBSTARK for kids from 9- to 13-years of age!
From October 23 to October 28, 2014, 16 exceptional theatre pieces from Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, Austria, Slovenia, Switzerland and Italy will be our guests in Münster and its surrounding region. Whether a play, dance theatre, music theatre, or object theatre: All of the performances deal very closely with the issues and thoughts of their young viewers.

Jamal
Jamal is angry – not at anyone in particular, just... everybody. He’s angry at his parents who don’t speak Dutch, at the school where he’ll always be a ‘foreigner’, and at the West and global politics as a whole. He lashes out around him. Not with fists but with words, because Jamal writes poems: raging poems. They’re starting to appear everywhere, but nobody knows they’re his. It’s his secret – one of his secrets.
Discourse
With its programme of international guest performances, HALBSTARK is also a forum for creative, cross-border dialogues.
Theatre discussions about issues of current interest are directed at both the experts and the interested festival visitors.
